The performance studies focus on analytical and method comparison, not on training or evaluating AI/ML models.
No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for quantitative measurement of proteins in serum to monitor patients, not for treatment or therapy.
Yes
The device is described as a "quantitative in vitro assay" intended for measurement of specific immunoglobulins, and its use is "in conjunction with other laboratory tests and clinical evaluations" for "monitoring previously diagnosed IgG multiple myeloma patients." This indicates its role in providing objective measurements to aid in diagnosis or monitoring of a disease state.
No
The device description explicitly states that the kits contain vials of ready-to-use polyclonal monospecific sheep anti-lgG antisera, calibrators, controls, and reaction buffer in liquid form, which are physical components, not software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the kits are "quantitative in vitro assay intended for the measurement of IgG Kappa... in serum" and "quantitative in vitro assay intended for the measurement of IgG heavy chain and Lambda light chain intact immunoglobulin) in serum". The term "in vitro" is a key indicator of an IVD.
- Device Description: The description details the components of the kits, which are reagents used to perform tests on biological samples (serum) outside of the body.
- Intended User / Care Setting: It is stated as "in vitro diagnostic prescription use only," further confirming its classification as an IVD.
- Performance Studies: The document describes analytical and clinical performance studies conducted to validate the device's performance for its intended diagnostic purpose.
- Predicate Device: A predicate device (K132555) is listed, which is also an IVD for similar measurements.
All these elements align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Precision/Reproducibility:
The within-run, between-run, between-day, between-lot and between-instrument precision were determined by testing six serum samples over 21 days with two runs per day on three different reagent lots on three analysers.
IgGL Precision studies: Total %CV ranged from 5.4% to 7.7%
IgGK Precision studies: Total %CV ranged from 4.0% to 9.0%
Linearity/assay reportable range:
A linearity study was performed following CLSI document Evaluation of the Linearity of Quantitative Measurement Procedures: A Statistical Approach. The linearity of the IgGK and IgGL assays have been confirmed using serially diluted serum samples to cover the standard measuring ranges of 2.3 - 30.0 q/L and 1.5 - 17.5 g/L respectively. The results demonstrated that the IqGK and IgGL assays are linear over the ranges of 1.930 - 33.427 g/L and 1.380 -19.300 g/L at 1+19 dilution with deviation from linearity ≤ 10%.

L. Test Principle:
Evaluating the concentration of a soluble antigen (e.g. IgG lambda) by turbidimetry involves the addition of the test sample to a solution containing the appropriate antibody (anti-IgG lambda) in a reaction vessel or cuvette. A beam of light is passed through the cuvette and, as the antigen-antibody reaction proceeds, the light passing through the cuvette is scattered increasingly as insoluble immune complexes are formed. Light scatter is monitored by measuring the decrease in intensity of the incident beam of light. The antibody in the cuvette is in excess so the amount of immune complex formed is proportional to the antigen concentration. A series of calibrators of known antigen concentration are assayed initially to produce a calibration curve of measured light scatter versus antigen concentration. Samples of unknown antigen concentration can then be assayed and the results read from the calibration curve.

The linearity of the IgGK and IgGL assays have been confirmed using serially diluted serum samples to cover the standard measuring ranges of 2.3 - 30.0 q/L and 1.5 - 17.5 g/L respectively. The results demonstrated that the IqGK and IgGL assays are linear over the ranges of 1.930 - 33.427 g/L and 1.380 -19.300 g/L at 1+19 dilution with deviation from linearity ≤ 10%. -
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): Traceability: An Internal Reference material (IR) was assigned by comparison with the Reference Material DA470K.
Stability:
Open-vial stability was performed on three lots of Optilite Hevylite IgG Kappa and IgG Lambda kits with testing intervals at various time points up to 112 days. Data supports an open vial stability claim of 3 months at 2-8°C.
On-board stability was performed on three lots of Optilite Hevylite IgG Kappa and IgG Lambda kits with testing intervals at various time points up to 37 days for IgGK and
8
49 days for IgGL. Data supports an on-board stability claim of 28 days, provided that the power is left switched on as stated in the product insert.
- d. Detection limit:
The analytical sensitivity was determined in accordance with CLSI EP17-A. The Limit of Blank was based on 60 determinations of analyte depleted sample and was estimated at the 95th percentile of the distribution. The Limit of Detection was calculated from the LoB and the combined SD of the 5 LoQ samples. The LoQ was calculated from 5 independent samples (serum samples diluted with analyte depleted serum to achieve a concentration close to the bottom of the measuring range) tested twelve times over five days. The tabulated summary of results is shown below:
| LoB | LoD | LoQ | |
|---|---|---|---|
| IgG Kappa | 0.000 g/L | 0.009 g/L | 0.115 g/L |
| IgG Lambda | 0.000 g/L | 0.005 g/L | 0.075 g/L |
- e. Analytical specificity:
Interference:
Interferences were assessed according to CLSI EP7-A2 by testing three serum samples with different IgG Kappa and IgG Lambda concentration ranges, including a sample close to the lower limit of the reference interval, a sample within the reference interval and an elevated serum sample. Each sample was spiked with interfering substances and tested in multiple replicates. The acceptance criterion was that the mean results from the spiked samples must be within ±10% of the mean of the control samples.
No significant assay interference effects were observed when the samples were tested with bilirubin at 200mg/L, haemoglobin at 5g/L, triglyceride at 1000mg/dL. intralipid at 125mg/dL or the 16 commonly used drugs at the concentrations given below.

Purpose of the study
The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical HLC Response categorisation of the predicate and the Optilite Hevylite IgG Kappa and Lambda Kits obtained from samples taken at multiple time points from IgG Kappa and IgG Lambda multiple myeloma patients during the course of their disease. The sponsor generated Passing and Bablok regression equations for the comparison study of the Optilite kits against the predicate kits. The regression equation was then modelled with the existing monitoring sample results from the original BNII submission to evaluate the clinical validity of the new device.

|---|---|
| Very Good Partial | |
| Response (VGPR) | >91% reduction of HLC ratio from baseline and reduction in 24 hour |
| urinary M-protein to ≤100mg per 24 hours | |
| Partial Response | |
| (PR) | Reduction of HLC ratio from baseline between 47 - 91% and reduction in |
| 24 hours urinary M-protein by ≥90% or to ≤200mg/24 hours. | |
| Stable Disease (SD) | A change in HLC ratio from baseline 32% increase in HLC ratio from baseline (the absolute increase in |
| involved IgG must be ≥5g/L) or a ≥25% increase in urine M-protein from | |
| baseline (the absolute increase must be ≥200mg/24 hours) | |
| Relapse from CR | > 32% increase in HLC ratio from baseline (the absolute increase in |
| involved IgG must be ≥5g/L) |
Table 1: HLC Monitoring Response Category
Optilite HLC Response Category Study
Assignment of classification was based on the HLC Monitoring Response Category detailed in Table 1, using all assay data available. Responses were cateqorised in accordance with NCCN Guidelines v1.2011 by using the percentage change from baseline. Responses were characterised as progressive disease (PD), stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), very good partial response (VGPR), and complete response (CR). Kappa statistics were used to evaluate agreement between the test and predicate devices.
Optilite Monitoring Study Design
A comparison of 69 monitoring samples from 10 IqG Kappa patients and 12 IgG Lambda patients was performed to compare the BNII HLC response category assigned to those observed with the Optilite Hevylite IgG Kappa and Lambda kits (Note: The Optilite monitoring response category is not to be used interchangeably with other manufacturer's assays or with any other instrument platform monitoring response category). The results of the comparison study using 69 monitoring samples vielding 43 response classifications are shown in the table below:
